Spiders. Ugh.

Hit some sort of debris on I-285 in the work car, which ended up puncturing the gas tank. Fun.

They call those MOTORCYCLES, you're supposed to go around them.

Spent a few hours after work cleaning up for tomorrows company and faux Tyrion BBQ attempt. Reconnected with an old friend-

Her body is quite large, 13mm and if you include the legs she was 44mm across. Her body is the size of a blueberry to get perpective. Black widows are scary and we have a lot of them running around the outside of the house.

Is there anything for wildlife around your house not trying to kill you?

Experienced my first ever earthquake this morning. Whole fucking place was shaking. That was pretty cool.

You must've been pretty close to the epicenter. I slept right through it (didn't even know until you said it). But then again I was dead tired.

Finally pried my computer loose from Customs.

Yay! This is the 27" iMac, right? Any issues with your audio gears?

you should train the rattle snakes to eat the black widows.

What's going to eat the rattlesnakes?

Good to have you back, Stretch!

Greg!

Starting a Meerkat colony in your backyard will solve your spider, snake, and scorpion problems.

They may not be legal, and will almost certainly dig many holes all over the place. Its a small price to pay.

Woke me up...or perhaps it woke the cat up which woke me up, but...either way...I was too tired to investigate what it was at the time (didn't know it was an earthquake, thought it might have been a big tanker-truck collision on 270).

Justin -- you can now say that you can literally sleep through an earthquake...without whisk(e)y being involved.

a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat.

What will take care of the gorillas then?

Gorillas are a lot easier to hit with a wide-scatter shotgun than a snake...or even a meerkat.

i would suggest that they would simply freeze to death once winter rolls around, but i don't think it gets that cold in southern california.

you'd probably want to use slugs on a gorilla.

Alright: Gorillas are a lot easier to hit with large caliber slugs than a snake...or even a meerkat.

I miss how much I used to enjoy The Simpsons.

Decided, for whatever reason, not to try the Obligatos I just got, and ended up just putting on a new set of Vision Solos. Will try the Obligatos the next time my strings get poopy. Learned how to multitask by practicing while watching kendo vids. Supposedly Perlman did something similar, watching a lot of baseball during practicing.

Now to be truly hardcore you can drink copious amounts of expensive scotch while playing your violin and watching kendo vids.

Me too. I do rewatch a lot of the old episodes though

Will cheap beer suffice? That's about all I can afford. I can drink it out of a straw.

With a straw that would be funny enough to suffice.

I understand that Red Vodka is pretty inexpensive.

Hook a brotha up.

Just found out kendo club might be canceled next semester. Motherfuckers. Not if I have anything to say about it.

I do: "Motherfuckers."
